Most Common Psychological Disorders

Panic attacks are very real to the person experiencing them. For no apparent reason their body reacts to a perceived threat, resulting in rapid heart beat, dizziness, nausea, sweating, shortness of breath, chest pains, loss of control, feeling as if they are smothering, and terror. It is the flight of fight response activated in the body, where if a person was in real danger they would feel these very feelings, but in these cases, there is no threat.
